Amherst College Class of 2022!

anyone who got in chose option B for supplemental writing?

Yes i did @equality4all . Submitted a paper from my English class

Got in. I also submitted a random paper from English class.

also I never sent an official score report, I self-reported on common app and I believe I submitted screenshot of college board score screen on the portal, I hope that was enough

BTW I still haven’t checked out of overwhelming anxiety, that’s why I’m still asking questions like this

I submitted a random essay for history, your response is so comforting @kassh4

@equality4all i sent a PDF of my score reports

@junior1818 maybe i did that, did either one of them, i’d see and check except that there’s something too scary to be seen on the portal rn…

Accepted! International needing full aid. I’ve been waitlisted/rejected everywhere else so this is…wooh

Accepted! 1560 SAT, top 5%, from MA

@gigichuck also an intl student needing full aid! (haven’t seen my decision yet) where are u from?

@equality4all boi just check

Please check by 5PM bro lmao @equality4all no need to rip the hairs out of your head out of stress for any more than an hour when decisions have already been released. If you get in, great; if not, that’s 100% okay and there’s always other options.

Waitlistemundo.

Rejected

Hey don’t get down on yourself!!! The acceptance rate was only 5% this year. That’s insane!

@katey27 they had 9,700 applications for 472 spots, but not everybody who applies accepts their offer (yield), so they have to accept more. last year the acceptance rate was 12.9% so it was prob a bit less than that. Nonetheless insanely competitive.

Rejected, I´m international student

I got waitlisted can I still get into Brown?

@AceAttorney21 Yeah you definitely still have a chance at Brown. Amherst and Brown are similarly competitive, and the admissions process can differ greatly from school to school, so don’t let a result from one school get you pessimistic about a result from another school. For example, a girl from my school last year didn’t get into Boston University but she got into Princeton.
